The Beggar King US Edition A Hangman Daughter Tale Book 3 edition by Oliver Pötzsch Lee Chadeayne Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
In this third historical novel in A Hangman’s Daughter Tale series, the main characters go to Regensburg, where a plot lies in store for the hangman Jakob Kuisl. He is accused of murdering his sister and brother-in-law, proprietors of a bathhouse and the location of secret alchemical experiments. As expected, the eponymous daughter, Magdalena, and her husband, are in Regensburg attempting to save the hangman’s life. Layers of mysterious ongoings occur while Magdalena comes into her own as a developing series character. In temperament, she is very much like her father – easily angered, pugnacious, persistent, independent and, in her own way, generous and kind. Typical of the series, class conflict pervades the novel as the peasant and worker classes revolt against their patrician overlords. The author is gifted at keeping the reader in wonder about who the good and the bad actors are, right up to the point of merging everything together in a final disclosure at the end of the work. The book is set in 1662 Bavaria and, as in his prior series novels, the author is quite descriptive of the times in which the people live. Multiple sub-plots, developed characters, and circuitous narrative have become hallmarks of Poezsch’s work. Follow the alchemic work and the Italian Ambassador to remain ahead in solving the fundamental underlying mystery that incarcerates and tortures the Schongau hangman and brings his daughter, after whom the series is named, to life.
An exciting historical mystery set in 1662. In those days a hangman was also a torturer and a healer. Remember that. Hangman Jakob Kuisl travels to the imperial city of Regensburg after he receives a letter that his sister is deadly ill. But right from the get go, something is serious wrong, first on the boat to the town, then at the city gates.
When Jakob finally gets to his sister's home, he finds her and her husband murdered and he is the number one suspect. And that means that he is quickly determined to be suspicious and must be tortured to get him to confess.
Meanwhile Jakob's daughter, Magdalena, and her boyfriend, Simon, flee from home to be together, and unfortunately, they also travel to Regensburg, where they are soon sought for a suspicious fire that destroys the house of her aunt and the scene of the crime. But Magdalena finds a seeming friend, the ambassador from Vienna, while Simon makes alliances with the Beggars' guild and the leader of the freemasons.
Who and why this is happening to both Jakob and Magdalena is harder and harder to figure out and the stakes continue to climb higher. Jakob is holding out as long as possible during the torture to get him to confess, and the Regensburg's hangman, who believes in his innocence, is beginning to get suspicious of what is driving the intensity of the town elders to kill Jakob.
Friend and foe is hard to determine in this thriller of a tale. Reading doesn't get much better than this.
The hangman gets a letter from his sister, asking him to come to her aid as she is gravely ill. A few days later, his daughter and her boyfriend, Simon the doctor, leave town to start a fresh life where no one knows them. Unknown to each other, the hangman and his daughter are both headed to the same town, where intrigue awaits them.
Upon arrival, the hangman is immediately accused of a crime, and his daughter sets out to try and help him. Alone in a strange city, they all must try and figure out who their friends and allies are, why the hangman was framed, and how to unravel the multiple layers of conspiracy, stretching back a quarter century.
Along the way, we learn much about the hangman's back story, and about the complex class structure that constituted a European city on the 1600's--beggars, outcasts, peasants, tradesmen, priests, and the aristocracy. The complicated relationships between them provides the back drop for this story, and lends it much of its richness of character.
Highly recommended.
